Brazilian flag

• @ElektraFlowers: Much to whinge about here I'm afraid. Straight away I'm rejecting Brazil (band) as ineligible per WP:DYKNEW; it is not new or recently improved. Brasil (band) has a {{notability}} template (placed by @Instant History:) and that's a showstopper. Thirdly, the hook suggests that there are only two bands named after the country, but no-one's ever counted every band in history, so the claim is unverifiable. A reviewer will need a new hook. In the meantime, I'd like to get back to basics; what are the three best sources for Brasil?--Launchballer 22:11, 13 April 2026 (UTC)

• Question wouldn't this be WP:SYNTH if no source mentions both bands? Skemous (talk) 02:14, 14 April 2026 (UTC)
• Also a question: what is the point of the flag in the hook? -- especially since it does not appear in any of the articles (nor should it). Dahn (talk) 14:57, 19 April 2026 (UTC)

@Launchballer: If you have doubts about Brasil's notability, you can nominate the article for deletion so that its notability can be determined as soon as possible. Better to deal with it now than wait up to two months for the concerns to be resolved. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 04:13, 20 April 2026 (UTC)

I will do if @ElektraFlowers: can't demonstrate notability here.--Launchballer 04:19, 20 April 2026 (UTC)

@Launchballer: ElektraFlowers has not responded despite editing earlier today and a talkback message. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 11:15, 22 April 2026 (UTC)

BLARed. That ought to get their attention.--Launchballer 11:24, 22 April 2026 (UTC)

I've left them a talk page message about the BLAR. Given that this nomination no longer has any eligible articles, I'm marking it for closure. They are free to appeal at WT:DYK if they still wish to proceed with the nomination or address the notability concerns. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 12:03, 22 April 2026 (UTC)
